And I Crave 'Em
You Are Carbs |
You are a very energetic and seductive person. You tend to be driven by your impulses, and people often find you tempting. Often your energy is brief and almost manic. You have a lot of ups and downs if you're not careful. When you take care of yourself, you feel alert, balanced, and satisfied. You can live a very balanced life if you play your cards right. When you don't take care of yourself, your life is a nightmare. You can be moody, cranky, and unpredictable. |
